Furnishing your home is a process that starts by analysing the space available and then working with everything from the layout of each room to the availability of natural light and windows to enable the rooms to feel both welcoming and spacious. In a smaller home with less available floor space, access to light and bright surroundings can be more challenging as you find a place for each piece of furnishing – which is where The Pendant Lighting Company comes in.
By offering a range of lights for every room and interior space, we help homeowners to achieve the light and bright surroundings which make a house a home. And in this blog, we’re sharing our advice on how to maximise the aesthetic of your home through various lighting solutions – opening up the space and making even the smallest of rooms and hallways feel more accessible.
Lights That Make A Smaller Home Or Interior Space Feel More Open
Modern living and interior styling have seen a spotlight fall on those materials and finishes which are both neutral and simple in design. Transparent glass is one such trend that is making waves across the interior lighting sector, with many of our structures and designs seeing bulbs surrounded by ornate glass shades and finely glass transparent casings.
Available in a range of colours, from handblown mushroom bulbs in soft greys and blush pinks, to those clear and rounded cases which mimic the shape and display of the inner bulb, our selection of glass pendant lights immediately make a smaller room or interior space feel brighter by optimising the flow of light and allowing it to shine in all directions.
The Value Of Different Light Placements In Making A House Feel More Like Home
As well as our ceiling pendant lights and cluster lights which are well suited to life above a dining table or breakfast bar, we offer a range of different light fittings for various locations around the home. And while ceiling lights are classically the obvious go-to for smaller spaces, there is an immense value in mixing up the flow of light to brighten up the corners of a room and create lighter surroundings at ground level.
Add a floor light to a hallway to make it feel brighter and more welcoming, and consider integrating table lamps and even wall lights into smaller rooms and home offices to ensure that the light flow around the room is not lost.
We also recommend selecting and positioning your lights in line with the flow of natural light from any windows – paying attention to how the sun moves throughout the room and ensuring that any light fittings complement and work with this access to sunlight rather than against it.
